Ok, so my virus scanner (avg) detected a trojan about a week ago. Before I could try removing it or quarantining it, the trojan just shuts off my computer. The wierd thing is, if I press any key the computer turns back on but shuts back off about 5 seconds later. This keeps happening for [...]
Mobo: Intel DG35EC
RAM: 2×1G Corsair Twin-x 800MHz
CPU: E2180
I picked up another Twinx pair today, 2×2G 800MHz. When I added the new RAM the system booted up reporting one of the 1G sticks as 256MB. I have the newest BIOS.
If I swap the 2G sticks to channel B with the 1G sticks in channel A [...]
i blame user error. either that or piracy. i think that’s the only options, he’s an idiot or a thief.
(just kidding)While I won’t outright condemn it as shit (I like a lot of things about it) I’ve been having problems with it too. Crazy memory usage, pages not loading (get stuck on [...]
The prelim round is now, finishes in like 7hrs.oh look, thousands of lines of more horrible code encouraged by the google code monkeys.
Honestly, google needs to stop encouraging quick horrible code and have a contest for who can write GOOD code. Google needs to completely re-do everything.I got 50 points. I can’t believe [...]

about a couple of months ago i noticed my computer has becoming more and more sluggish. my applications take longer to load, more ram to load and everythings becoming alot slower than usual. for example, when i try playing games like counter strik 1.6, i usually had my settings at 32 bit and 1024×768 resolution [...]
Got around $1500 to spend towards a new laptop. Can you all recommend something for me? I’m thinking about an xps What do you want to use it for? Desktop replacement/gaming, sager laptops from a vendor like pctorque will be your best bet.
I think the XPS line is overpriced for what you get. [...]
What happens if i use this program but don’t disable pagefiling?
for the uninformed:
It allocates all of the space when you create the encrypted file, so it won’t overwrite it with the the page file.
If you create a 4gb encrypted drive, it will create a 4gb file.If your whole OS (and all your drives) is encrypted, [...]
Been out of the computer thing for a while, so I don’t know what’s the best bang for the buck build is right now.
Q9450. Seems like the new hotness?
8800GT was a bargain for performance last I read when it first came out.
Dunno about mobo or chipset.
Help. Seems like nobody ever needs to build a badass [...]
After trying to build my own and all that shit my computer has died again so I’m just saying fuck it and buying a pre-built now. I was looking at this guy and it seemed like a pretty good deal.
